The Fountain of Youth?


A couple nights ago, Marci and I went on an extremely unusual date. We went to the movies!!! I think that the last time we saw a movie in the theater was almost 2 years ago...it's very rare. At the big, deluxe movie theaters in this area it usually costs @ $9.00 to see a movie in the evening (isn't that crazy?). There is an older theater that charges only $6.00 a ticket which sounded much better to me. So, we walk up to buy our tickets and the girl says it will cost us $6.00. At first I thought, "Is she going to give us two tickets"? Did she think we were paying separately? Yes, it's true...she gave us two evening tickets for $6.00 (I didn't want to make a fuss about the price). Here is why, we were sold two student tickets...no questions asked. Did she think we were high schoolers? I guess when you aren't pushing a baby cart around you look even younger. So yes, there are definitely benefits to looking 18 when you are actually 26-27. Maybe our Brita, filtered water is helping out...

I'm a Music Teacher!

This is a very exciting week for me! I just found out that I got a job teaching music to grades K-8! It's at a small school called Cornerstone Christian School. It is such a relief to finally have some certainty about my employment. Here's the cool part: on Friday I was going to tell my boss that I was quitting, but I didn't have certainty about a job yet. Of course, I was wishing that I had confirmation about employment, but there was no way to be certain. Well, wouldn't ya know, the school offered me the job on Friday afternoon! How's that for God's timing? Now comes the scary part...I will actually have to teach...

We are also looking into the possibility of directing music at a Baptist Church in Howell, MI. We are in the process of learning about the church and interviewing with the search committee, but so far so good. This has been a very exciting week for us and we are looking forward to the new opportunities.
